COLOR CODEKMF - Medium BluePeugeot Touch-Up Paint

The Look

This color is a pillar of the Peugeot identity, appearing on everything from the nimble 206 to the larger family estates for over two decades. It is a punchy, mid-tone blue that manages to look sophisticated without being boring. Since your car has likely been on the road for several years, the original finish has faced sun and rain, which can make the factory pigment look a little tired. Applying a fresh layer helps restore that crisp, French character that defined the brand's aesthetic throughout the early 2000s and beyond.

Technical Details

This is a metallic finish, which means the paint is packed with tiny flakes that reflect light to give the surface depth. Metallic paints require more attention than solid colors because those flakes like to settle at the bottom of the container. If they are not distributed evenly, you will end up with dark blotches or stripes where the metal particles clumped together. Keeping the particles suspended is the only way to ensure the repair matches the rest of the panel under direct sunlight.

Best Practices

You can find your paint information on a sticker located on the driver's side door pillar. Before you spray or dab Peugeot Medium Blue (check for code KMF), you need to shake it for 60 seconds. Shaking is vital for metallic colors to wake up those heavy flakes. Test the color on the included card to verify the shade and flake density. When you begin, keep the container moving to ensure the flow remains even across the surface. Build the color in thin layers and respect the drying time between each pass to prevent the metallic particles from sagging or drifting.
